They are the Donald of football. They show no class and are always the first to be vocal yet time and time again their existence is holding our game back. Lets see if Hibs demand clarification over their visit to Covid Park Nothing a couple of January loan deals won't fix. Leigh get your boots packed,your going home.

It will be spun that it's the SG's fault, but it's plain that it isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure the SFA will take this into consideration.

TyphoonJambo Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) If Celtic prove to be the catalyst that forces the SG to terminate this season. Forcing the reimbursement of tv money,withdrawal of government grants etc. Consequently leading to the demise if several teams,people losing their jobs,hundreds of years of history lost, thensurely the repercussions would be equally severe. A hard,hard talking to type of thing. Maybe even a scathing fax. Edited January 10, 2021 by TypoonJambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diadora Van Basten Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I am concerned that Hearts will be affected by this. The SPFL will serve us up as sacrificial lambs so that they are seen to be doing something by The Scottish Government whilst the SPFL protect Celtic once again.

18Jambo_dave74 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Don’t expect Hibs to make any sort of complaint or demands about this game. Creepy Jack Ross in the paper sticking up for them and claiming “I’m sure, if you asked everyone, they’d know someone who has ventured overseas. I’m quite sure of that”. So many people unable to work and unable to see their families yet “everyone” knows somebody who has went abroad. Insulting nonsense.

Even if that is sarcasm, you are hitting the heights. The sneaky snidey way some people are behaving, pre thought intention bordering on criminal in these times of restrictions.

You do realise in a democracy that the government make the laws and completely independent authorities and organisations (in our case the police and the courts) enforce them and punish breaches. That’s one of the pillars of democracy that the law makers are distinct from the enforcers. The government have no power or authority to punish Celtic as an individual club. They have suggested that the SFA ‘investigate’ and that is as far as they can go. However if football as a whole is not doing its bit as far as compliance and public safety is concerned, the government has the authority to stop all football, and indeed all sport as an emergency Covid measure.
